While I am no fan of the Democrats, they certainly have not “embraced Antifa”. The Democratic Party is arguably just as establishment and nearly as corporatist as the Republican party. Antifa activists tend to be more aligned with political anarchism and are about as opposed to the establishment and corporatism as one can be. That said, there is no hierarchy so I am sure there are some outliers who call themselves Antifa who don’t fit the mold.
I agree, and I think Fox News has blown them way out of proportion. They are a small fringe group, but Fox News pundits are just overreacting.
Antifa doesn't have any political influence or power. I don't even think they are organized like the neo nazis. Neo Nazis are an organization with leaders and regional chapters. It seems like antifa are an unorganized group who take counter protesting way too far, and a mixture of non mainstream leftist political views.
